This is how the protagonists of Eiyuden Chronicle Rising grow up in Hundred Heroes
In addition, Junko Kawano, character illustrator for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, has revealed the designs for Eiyuden Chronicle Rising’s leading trio in the upcoming JRPG. ” Isha is a bit more adventurous now and wears light gear, and CJ has grown up a bit, maybe. At least that’s what I tried to do when designing them,” says the artist. ” Garoo ‘s already a mature adult, so I just changed his design a bit.”
The developers say that at the Tokyo Game Show 2023, which takes place from September 14 to 16, they will give new information about Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes, which will be released on computers and current consoles after financing on Kickstarter in July 2020 with more than three million euros.
